TAMPA, Fla. – August 16, 2016 – vXchnge, a leading carrier-neutral colocation services provider, announced today that they have been recognized in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Top 30 Tech and Telecom Companies list of the largest green power users from the Green Power Partnership. vXchnge’s choice to use green power is helping to advance the green power market and support clean renewable energy alternatives, along with other power users who made the list including Apple, Google, Iron Mountain, Samsung, Microsoft and Sony.

“As a leading ‘edge’ colocation services provider, we are thrilled to be recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for our green power use”, said Keith Olsen, CEO of vXchnge. “Our choice to use renewable energy goes hand in hand with our business strategy of investing in new technologies across our broad footprint to increase data center efficiencies and resiliencies.
